Answer:

25 goat and 15 chicken

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the number of goats is G, then the number of chickens is 40 - G as there are 40 heads and each chicken and each goat has one head.

The number of feet is 130

So 2(40 - G) + 4G = 130

So 80 - 2G + 4G = 130

2G = 50

G = 25

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 3/4 + 3/4 and add it. That equals 1.5, so you take 3/4+ 3/4 again and you get 1.5 . So, 1.5+1.5 is 3. So that's how you get your total of 4 boxes.
